Riding out of Passau, Germany
When we got there we rode into the tourist information center and asked for a cycling map of the Danube, here is another tip, they give detailed books on how to ride down the Danube for free, they have everything in them from maps, to bike repair to food to camp grounds, all good stuff.
One of the many bike ferrys for crossing the Danube
So we set off, it was a hotter day but that is fine, I liked it better when it was hot than raining anyway. The plan was to make as much ground on the first day so that we can take our time for the other days. There was some really amazing terrain and castles around which was great to see.
The Danube
So we rode 80km through towns and villages along the Danube, there were many other riders however they were a fair bit older than we were.
Our tent on the first night
The first night or camping there was thunderstorms, the weather could change really quickly, I had read about June / July thunderstorms but I figured it would not be a problem. It was not a problem because we were sleeping when it all happened. It was a big day so we went to bed early so we could get a good start in the morning.
